    @KC from Casey is it true that Howsie was pulled off at halftime? Boots off, no longer playing in this match?

    Let's hope no late outs (May)

    That was a real slaughter, Tigers were really shocking and our system and intensity was a step above.

    Great to see Roo get some touch but I can't say anyone else stood out very much.

    Only caught the last quarter but great 20 goal win.

    Hard for AJ and JVR to stamp their form.

    Bye again next week.

    Great signs for the club though

    VFL thoughts after watching:

    • Laurie: classy/silky, and generally a decent decision maker, but a fraction slow - in running and being aware of what’s around him

    • JvR: back to his physical / athletic best. A good kick for goal too.

    • Billings: good all round player who is a class above at VFL. But lacks one or two key strengths that would set him above at AFL (and a little slow with a shorter kick)

    • Taj Woey: like Laurie, but even more so, too slow in decision making and not aware of what’s around him and the urgency required sometimes

    Phenomenal result considering the scores were level at quarter time.

    Good point.

    I can’t remember his name being mentioned in the 2nd half

    It's normal I believe for the stand in emergency to play a half and then go on standby.

    Would not read overly much into it

    This. Laurie was taken off at half time in round 1 to be the carry over emergency. Common practice for games played on the same day in the same state.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
